New Year, new granola recipe! Obviously, I couldn’t keep my fellow granola lovers waiting long for a new and exciting blend of flavours and ingredients! This Pistachio Pecan Blueberry Granola is about to knock your socks off! These ingredients combined do something explosive and unexpected! Get ready to indulge in the perfect blend of sweet and salty because this granola is serving all the things!
Achieving that perfect batch of granola involves a few key steps: evenly mixing your dry and wet ingredients, baking at the right temperature, and allowing the granola to cool completely for that irresistible crunch. One thing I always suggest is DO NOT TOUCH until everything has cooled off. this will ensure that you get those clumpy morsels of joy every time. I also love my pampered chef ceramic baking sheet. Sourcing yourself the ideal baking sheet is key to ensuring a nice and even bake every time. Convection ovens also help with this.
Granola isn’t just delicious; it’s also incredibly nourishing. It’s a fantastic way to kickstart your day with energy, thanks to its combination of healthy fats, proteins, and carbs. The best part of having granola for breakfast is it is easy on the go, or during those busy mornings because all you need to do is add your accompanying ingredients (or eat it dry by the handful if you’d really like!)
This granola, along with all granola is incredibly versatile. You can enjoy your gluten free granola with your favourite yogurt, sprinkle it over a smoothie bowl, or simply grab a handful as a snack. It’s also delightful with a splash of milk. I love that I can just toss it in a bowl at any point and add to it whatever I have on hand, a banana with a scoop of yogurt or anything available at the moment. This granola in particular is so enjoyable all on its own.
You’re going to adore this granola because it’s a delightful departure from the ordinary. The unique combination of pistachio and pecan with blueberries offers a gourmet twist to your regular granola, making your breakfasts and snacks exciting and indulgent. Embrace the new year with this delicious, nutritious granola that promises to keep you energized and satisfied. Dive into the recipe, and let’s make mornings deliciously different!

So happy you love it! thank you for the love 🙂
Is it possible to make it with out the oil
Yes you can make it without olive oil but some sort of oil is necessary to get the clumps. I prefer olive oil for the texture it provides. I hope that helps!
Absolutely delicious. Eating it off the tray while I am waiting for it cool.
Hey Karen, I know the feeling!! Love that you tried this granola recipe 🙂 I hope you try the others as well!
Hi Teri-Ann, I’ve already made it twice! I replaced the blueberries with Goji berries, the recipe is amazing, thanks!!!
Greetings from Colombia 🙂
Hey Majo! I love that you’ve got this recipe on repeat, thanks for sharing your modifications and sharing love!!
Can I leave the nut butter out?
Of course – you may have some issues with the ingredients binding – you can swap it for any seed butter or just have some less clumps
Thanks a lot for sharing ur recipes will definately try it
Hey Saima! It is my absolute pleasure, I cannot wait to find out what you tried!
Bonsoir, j’espère que vous allez bien. J’adore votre recette et surtout la pistache 🤤🤤🤤. S’il vous plaît pouvez-vous m’écrire la recette en gramme pour plus de précisions et surtout je ne sais pas utiliser les tasses comme mesure.
Est ce qu’on peut remplacer l’huile d’olive par d’huile de 🌻 ???? Et remplacer le sirop par du miel ???
Merci D’avance.
Hi Hind, you can use the button under the ingredients to review the prices in grams – this is generated automatically so I cannot promise 100% accuracy. I do not bake in grams. You can use honey in the recipe however this may change the outcome of clumps. Thank you
Hi
This sounds delicious!
Can I use fresh blueberries? If not, how can I dry them?
Also, can I use fresh shredded coconut? If not, how can I dry it?
Is it fresh ginger? Pounded? Shredded?
Or is it dried, powdered? How can I dry it?
Hello again,
I wouldn’t use fresh blueberries. Try to use a dried fruit like raisins or currents or cranberries, cherries. They come dried in bulk stores. Thats where i find all my ingredients. The ginger is ground. Good luck!
Kind of a silly question but when you say turn the pans, do you literally mean like turn the pans and 180° or do you mean to use a spatula and flip the granola in the pan?
Not silly at all! Thanks for asking – I mean rotate them 180 – don’t move the granola until you’ve taken it out of the oven and it’s totally cooled down!
Hi Teriann i just wanted to say thank you for all your recipes because they are so simple and tasty. Thank you for sharing 😊
Hey Nina! Thank you for taking the time to rate and review this recipe. I am so happy that you find my recipe simple and tasty! I am to please 🙂
Hello Terriann, can I substitute pistachio butter for Tahini? thank you so much for sharing your recipes.
Ariela
HI! You absolutely can!! xx
Another delicious granola – love it and thank you! I made the pistachio butter by scratch, which is so easy and delicious. I may have to make some Dubai chocolate with the extra…less healthy. 😉
Oh Jill you are one in a million for making the pistachio butter on your own!! I LOVE making pistachio butter. Hold the thought on the dubai chocolate and wait for a recipe I have coming out next week – you’re gonna loose your mind!
This was good, but not knock-my-socks off good. The pistachio butter, which I *loved* (by the spoonful!) on its own, didn’t come through in the flavor like I expected.
Hey Jen! Thank you for sharing your experience, I am glad that you enjoyed this recipe. Sorry to hear your nut butter did not come through in the flavours. I hope you’ll make it again and adjust to fit your preferences!
